If by "polarity" you mean magnetic, there sure is plenty right there exactly where the black hole would put it if it could. A heck of a big rotating accretion disk with an awful big positive charge accounts for it. The resulting field is in the same place and of the same shape as the one fancied for the black hole. The only charged particles available to the black hole are negative. But whatever, the few that enter a black hole from the "north" would present magnetic field that is canceled out very nicely by equivalent electron count coming from the "south".
If by, "polarity" you mean electrical polarity, only the positive and negative electrical polarities have been mentioned here. There is plenty of that. A rotating, growing, gigantic disk of mostly protons functions to align electrons into a fine string on either side of the black hole to present just the architecture required for one horrendous electron gun.
The kernel of this solution is to see that a charged particle contained by a sphere or disk will greedily seek out the greater attraction from beyond the center (until it gets to the center). Tendencies to incorrectly factor in range as a determining factor might account for erroneous supposition to the contrary: Increased scope of particle count mounts up faster with distance than the associated particle field attenuation within such enclosures. On the other hand, experience with electricity leads to valid expectations.
